“fighting with righteous fury” my dude it was a vote. Don’t over sell it.

I mean, if you and I were arguing about whether or not you could fart, and you demonstrated you could fart, yeah.

The members of db0 who don’t want to see and hear Zionists indeed do have the power to change their instance and did, so I don’t get what you mean by saying they don’t have the power to change the world so it’s petty.

Nobody removed your choice to change servers

Further evidenced by the fact they’re posting from their non-db0 account after saying they voted on the topic with their db0 account.

Whether or not you agree with db0’s decision, framing it as a mere “petty war” is disingenuous.

This is why we should use things like GPL.

At this point y’all aren’t disagreeing about what happened or if it was good/bad, just about how terms like “normal” and “nothing burger” should be used.

Hello Karim! How does it feel to be the first (or at least one of the first) celebrities to do an AMA on Lemmy?

Is this Lemmy’s first celebrity AMA?

Let’s be realistic. Not everyone is going to move to Codeberg. Godot moving to Codeberg would be decentralizing.

You can always checkout the branch and run it yourself.

I think I locked myself out of my account. I’m only logged in on my old computer and I’ve deleted the app from my phone. I saved my security key (I have a session security key field and security-key.txt in my 1password) but Element didn’t seem able to use it to reactivate. I would lose all my chats. Which wouldn’t be the end of the world, but still, I’m just demonstrating that I’m tech savvy enough to save things I’m told to save but I either missed saving a recovery key, wasn’t told to, or the process is just lacking. Regardless, like I said, I’m just demonstrating that it can be tricky.

Using Stoat’s main server raises a privacy concern because it’s UK-based and AFAIK lacks E2EE—UK authorities could seize server data without our knowledge.

When the alternative is Discord that’s no different. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

And you can do this with a USB, it doesn’t need to be a CD/DVD.

We should get ahead of the curve by making Markcoin then. Let’s do halfsies on an ICO.

Yeah, in the book of Revelation in the Bible as a sign of the end times followers of Satan will have a visible mark on them. Many evangelical Christian conspiracy theorists believe that in a literal sense. Paired with many conservatives also not wanting the government to be able to track them, a national ID system (as opposed to state IDs) has never really gain traction.

Some fundamentalist Christian groups, as well as various Christian writers in other traditions, interpret the mark as a requirement for all commerce to mean that the mark might actually be an object in the right hand or forehead with the function of a credit card, such as RFID microchip implants.[73] Some of these groups believe the implantation of chips may be the imprinting of the mark of the beast, prophesied to be a requirement for all trade and a precursor to God’s wrath.[74][75] Similar objections were raised about barcodes upon their introduction.[76]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, some groups associated COVID-19 vaccines and mask wearing with the mark of the beast, or that it was a microchip in the vaccine.[77] Some religious leaders spoke out against this as a misinterpretation of Revelation 13:16-18.[78] Medical institutions such as Hennepin County Medical Center noted this in their fact sheets about the vaccine.[79] A similar version was spread by Marjorie Taylor Greene, who referred to vaccine passports as being the mark of the beast.[80]

The same group that pushes for voter ID laws refuses to implement a national ID system because they’re afraid of the mark of the beast.

Well obviously the propaganda I grew up with is better and clearly didn’t affect me at all…

There’s a big difference between “hey kids, use this machine, it has Internet access and Brand products” and “hey kids, ask me anything you’d like, and I’ll give you the Brand approved answer.”

They’re putting AI in children’s school laptops? Not only teaching them to think less, but letting a corporation directly influence them?
